System -- XI -- HTTP Synchronous Scenario. Pls advice

Hi All,
I have 2 scenarios:
1. HTTP -- XI --- System A Synchronous Scenario
2. System B -- XI -- HTTP Synchronous Scenario
Can HTTP Receiver Adapter be used for both the above synchronous scenarios?
a. In HTTP Receiver Adapter is RFC Destination is of Type G?
b. What is Target Host
    In Scenario 1 is it System A host name?
    In Scenario 2 is it System B host name?
c. What is Path Prefix?
d. What is Service Number?
e. Does WebServer needs to run on System A and System B for HTTP connection?
f. Is there any property in HTTP Receiver Aadapter to make it
   Qos as BE or it is by default?
Regards

Did you look at the SAp documentation?

HTTP Synchronous Scenario. Pls advice urgent

Hi All,
My scenario
System A -- XI --- System B
This is Synchronous HTTP scenario.
I tested in XI RWB.
a. I took Message Mapping Source xml structure and sent from RWB it worked fine.
b. I took xsd of Request Data Type and sent from RWB it shows error
"MAPPING">EXCEPTION_DURING_EXECUTE"
Now In real scenario System A will send data to XI.
So does it mean that I need to send Message Mapping Source xml structure to System A and not xsd of Request Data Type
Pls advice
Regards

Hi,
Check the message status in SXMB_MONI and let me know the trace and error message.
the below message shows that there is some problem in mapping, u have not done the correct mapping between source and target.
EXCEPTION_DURING_EXECUTE"
test the message in message mapping using test tab and let me know the result.

HTTP adapter. Pls advice urgent

Hi,
Some cleint wants to send data to PI (7.0) through HTTP.
Now should that client send through HTTP or it can also use
HTTPS.
Pls advice urgent.
Regards

Hi,
          All XI runtime components using the HTTP protocol support the encryption of the HTTP data stream by means of the SSL protocol, also known as HTTPS. HTTPS data streams are completely transparent to the Exchange Infrastructure
     HTTPS (Hyper Text Transfer Protocol Secure) is a secure version of the Hyper Text Transfer Protocol (http). Secure means of transferring data using the https protocol in the World Wide Web where secure ecommerce transactions, such as online banking transactions and other financial transactions are involved.
Https encrypts the session with a digital certificate i.e., HTTP over SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) which can be used by Web browsers and HTTPS - capable client programs.
If the website begins with https:// instead of http://, it is a secure site. Almost 99% of the browsers can connect to web servers either using http or https. The address bar in the browser will begin with https instead of http, if a web site is secured.
HTTPS Protocol work with the combination of programs including the browser programs which takes care of the encryption/decryption routines that exist on the web hosting servers.
HTTP data is sent over TCP/IP port 80, whereas HTTPS data is sent over port 443.
HTTPS comes in two flavors, both ensuring the confidentiality of data sent over the network
1)Server authentication :
Only the HTTP server identifies itself with a certificate that is to be verified by the client.
2)Client authentication:
Additionally, the HTTP client identifies itself with a certificate that is to be verified by the server

Webservice sender and Receiver. Pls advice urgent

Hi All,
My Scenario
System A (WebService) -- XI -- System B (WebService)
Pls let me know
1. What does it mean by WebService needs WebServer?
2. For System A (WebService) -- XI
Do I require WebServer to be installed at System A or XI?
3. For XI -- System B (WebService)
Do I require WebServer to be installed at System B or XI?
Pls advice urgent.
Regards

Hi Piyush,
Hi Piyush,
System A (WebService) -- XI --- System B (WebService)
I know the flow -- like both webservices will be impoted as External Definations and will me mapped.
I was asking about Webserver.
a. XI --- System B (WebService)
System B is providing wsdl.
WebServer is required at System B -- fine.
b. System A (WebService) -- XI
System A is providing WebService(wsdl) to XI
XI is NOT providing WebService to System A.
So It is a webservice(wsdl) of System A. It will be given to XI and XI will import it as wsdl.
So do we or not require require Webserver in
System A or XI?
Pls tell System A (WebService) -- XI
Webserver part.

Http Scenario. Pls advice very urgent

Hi All,
My Scenario is
a. HTTP sends data to XI Synchronously.
b. XI opens Socket Connection in User Defined Function (UDF)
    of Message Mapping and gets response back from Socket
    in UDF. For Socket Connection request and response I will
    write java code in UDF
c. XI needs to send back Socket response to HTTP as XI has
    received data from HTTP Synchronously.
d. XI also needs to send back Socket response to File.
How to make this approach in XI using BPM.
Pls expain urgent
Regards

Hi Praveen,
Steps in BPM I have done :
1. One Rec step with Open S/A mode.
    Abstract Sync Message Interface for HTTP Request and
    HTTP Response.
2. Transformation Step (Mapping in BPM)
    HTTP Request and Socket Response
3. Fork Step -- Necessary Branch 2
4. Branch 1st --
a. Transformation Step(Mapping in BPM)
    Socket Response and HTTP Response
   b.One Send Step with Close S/A mode for HTTPResponse
      back
5. Branch 2nd --
a. Transformation Step (Mapping in BPM)
    Socket Response and File Response
b. One Send Step for File Response back.
Pls advice is it ok ?

Synchronous Scenario. How to reduce time. Pls advice urgent.

Hi All,
I have Synchronous Scenario. It has no BPM , simple synchronous scenario (HTTP --- Webservice).
It is taking 10 seconds. How can I reduce time of this scenario.
Pls advice

Hi,
The Time Consumption is based on below factors
1. the amount of data to be processed across the interface.
2. The response time of Receiver system
3. Type of Mapping used and implementations of any complex logics with Advanced UDFs etc
4. Hardware configurations
5. Resource Consumptions etc.
please refer below fine tunning docs.

Looks like there is some mapping problems ,may be the RFC connection is not properly configured .Here is the link to configure the connection between ECC and PI :
http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/XI/ConnectionSettingsbetweenECCandPIsystem
May be there is no value retrieved from the ECC system so it is saying null value.
For proper configuration check you can refer the following blog:
/people/community.user/blog/2006/12/12/http-to-rfc--a-starter-kit
I am a beginner so not the full answer is there but may be this would help you.

Response structure empty for HTTP to RFC synchronous scenario

Hi experts,
I have a HTTP to RFC synchronous scenario.
The request is given to Price List ZBAPI.
The input to the BAPI is date, material no, customer no and condition type.
The output I am fetcching from access sequence table into the table FINAL type structure ZFINAL which is
then sent back to source as a response.
But the problem is that I get this table as empty although BAPI returns data
Regards,
Mozila

Dear Mozila,
How did you check that BAPI returns data? Did you use an exact message sent from PI to the receiver business system? If not, I would suggest to take the message which was sent by PI to the receiver business system and use it when performing BAPI test.
Are table contents received by RFC adapter on PI side (can you see BAPI execution results in message contents for response message received by RFC adapter)?
Can you see any errors in RFC communication channel?
Did you check message monitor in Integration Server for the particular message? Are there any errors?
Please also check your message mapping - this may also cause the error in case RFC adapter receives correct results, but HTT client receives empty table.
My regards,
Vadim

HTTP-FILE synchronous scenario

Hi,
I want to configure a Http to file synchronous scenario.
Message will be sent through the HTTP test tool. I have selected BestEffort as the QoS.
We do not want to use the repository objects.
Sample file say(<tag>this is a sample file</tag>) will be sent through HTTP test tool.
This file should be received by the File Receiver channel and dumped on the FTP.
In response, a file from some other folder on FTP should be sent.
How can this be achieved?
Regards,
Pratibha.

Hi Pratibha,
the standard sap help side is here very good
[Integration Processes (ccBPM)|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/3c/831620a4f1044dba38b370f77835cc/content.htm]
You need a receive step (synchronous) for for your http request. For this you need 3 abstract interfaces: 1 synchr IF, 1 async for request container, 1 async for resp container. You need to correlate with a unique number which the http sender has to send (f.e. date/time stamp)
Next may be a transformation (mapping) but not required.
Then a async send step to send the file.
The response file need to be created, the corresponding adapter should have a short poll intervall. The response file need to send the unique id as well.
The BP correlates the second receive step, next you can - like before optional - execute a transformation step.
Finally u close the sync/async bridge and send the response back. This will take assumedly a minute or more.
The whole design is may be not sufficient. Better ask if the requierments are changeable.

Udo

Synchronous HTTP - RFC Scenario: Timeout

Hello together,
I have just implemented a synchronous HTTP --> RFC scenario. When I test the implementation using the HTTP testing tool within the Runtime Workbench everything works fine.
However when I use an external HTTP Client I get a timeout exception. This is also raised in the XI Message Monitoring: "Timeout condition of pipeline reached"
Do you know any reason for this?
Thank you very much.

Hello,
this problem is solved now. It was a problem with the HTTP Client, obviously because a wrong queueID was automatically inserted in the URL.

XI to WebService . Pls advice urgent

Hi All,
Scenario:
There is some response from System A back into XI.
I need to send response from XI to System B and get response back to XI.
System B has Synchronous Web Service and has provided its WSDL to XI.
Question:
1. Do I need to Import Webservice WSDL as External Defination in XI.?
2.Do I need to use only Soap Receiver Adapter in XI as it is Synchronous Web Service and XI can get response back from that System or also I need Soap Sender Adapter ?

UDF in message mapping instead of Java Mapping. Pls advice urgent

Hi All,
My scenario
CRM --- XI -- CRM
In XI I have to open socket connection.
Pls refer link:
/people/saravanakumar.kuppusamy2/blog/2005/12/15/socket-integration-with-xi
Can Java Mapping code given in above link for socket connection can be used in Message Mapping (CRM -- CRM)UDF?
Pls advice urgent
Regards

Hi Henry,
I understood your requirement.
But as per the architecture of XI/PI some message has to trigger your scenario.
In this case there is no adapter where you can directly communicate with CRM system.
Do one thing configure a dummy scenario on the sender side.
Use File adapter for simplicity. once it pools the file with some dummy data in the file it comes to Interface mapping(message mapping) of the PIPELINE steps. Now use the code as you mentioned above(within UDF) for opening socket to CRM system and implement you business logic within that program and write the response to target interface which will infact talk with CRM system.
Dont forget to do the coding in an infinite loop with some delay (if required). Other wise every time you have to put a message for File Adapter for triggering purposes.
You can also acheive the same if you use Java Mapping instead of Graphical mapping with UDF(code for Opening socket and business logic). I suggest you to use Java Mapping.
I dont know how you will comunicate with CRM system on receiver side.?
Thanks,
Gujjeti

SAP PI conceptual best practice for synchronous scenarios

Hi,
 Apologies for the length of this post but I'm sure this is an area most of you have thought about in your journey with SAP PI.
 We have recently upgraded our SAP PI system from 7.0 to 7.1 and I'd like to document best practice guidelines for our internal development team to follow.
I'd be grateful for any feedback related to my thoughts below which may help to consolidate my knowledge to date.
 Prior to the upgrade we have implemented a number of synchronous and asynchronous scenarios using SAP PI as the hub at runtime using the Integration Directory configuration.
No interfaces to date are exposes directly from our backend systems using transaction SOAMANAGER.
 Our asynchronous scenarios operate through the SAP PI hub at runtime which builds in resilience and harnesses the benefits of the queue-based approach.
 My queries relate to the implementation of synchronous scenarios where there is no mapping or routing requirement. Perhaps it's best that I outline my experience/thoughts on the 3 options and summarise my queries/concerns that people may be able to advise upon afterwards.
 1) Use SAP PI Integration Directory. I appreciate going through SAP PI at runtime is not necessary and adds latency to the process but the monitoring capability in transaction SXMB_MONI provide full access for audit purposes and we have implemented alerting running hourly so all process errors are raised and we handle accordingly. In our SAP PI Production system we have a full record of sync messages recorded while these don't show in the backend system as we don't have propogation turned on. When we first looked at this, the reduction in speed seemed to be outweighed by the quality of the monitoring/alerting given none of the processes are particularly intensive and don't require instant responses. We have some inbound interfaces called by two sender systems so we have the overhead of maintaing the Integration Repository/Directory design/configuration twice for these systems but the nice thing is SXMB_MONI shows which system sent the message. Extra work but seemingly for improved visibility of the process. I'm not suggesting this is the correct long term approach but states where we are currently.
 2) Use the Advanced Adapter Engine. I've heard mixed reviews about this functionaslity, there areh obvious improvements in speed by avoiding the ABAP stack on the SAP PI server at runtime, but some people have complained about the lack of SXMB_MONI support. I don't know if this is still the case as we're at SAP PI 7.1 EHP1 but I plan to test and evaluate once Basis have set up the pre-requisite RFC etc.
 3) Use the backend system's SOAP runtime and SOAMANAGER. Using this option I can still model inbound interfaces in SAP PI but expose these using transaction SOAMANAGER in the backend ABAP system. [I would have tested out the direct P2P connection option but our backend systems are still at Netweaver 7.0 and this option is not supported until 7.1 so that's out for now.] The clear benefits of exposing the service directly from the backend system is obviously performance which in some of our planned processes would be desirable. My understanding is that the logging/tracing options in SOAMANAGER have to be switched on while you investigate so there is no automatic recording of interface detail for retrospective review.
 Queries:
 I have the feeling that there is no clear cut answer to which of the options you select from above but the decision should be based upon the requirements.
 I'm curious to understand SAPs intention with these options -
 - For synchronous scenarios is it assumed that the client should always handle errors therefore the lack of monitoring should be less of a concern and option 3 desirable when no mapping/routing is required?
 - Not only does option 3 offer the best performance, but the generated WSDL is ready once built for any further system to implement thereby offering the maximum benefit of SOA, therefore should we always use option 3 whenever possible?
 - Is it intended that the AAE runtime should be used when available but only for asynchronous scenarios or those requiring SAP PI functionality like mapping/routing otherwise customers should use option 3? I accept there are some areas of functionality not yet supported with the AAE so that would be another factor.
 Thanks for any advice, it is much appreciated.

Hi Aaron,
I was hoping for a better more concrete answer to my questions.
I've had discussion with a number of experienced SAP developers and read many articles.
There is no definitive paper that sets out the best approach here but I have gleaned the following key points:
- Make interfaces asynchronous whenever possible to reduce system dependencies and improve the user experience (e.g. by eliminating wait times when they are not essential, such as by sending them an email with confirmation details rather than waiting for the server to respond)
- It is the responsibility of the client to handle errors in synchronous scenarios hence monitoring lost through P-P services compared to the details information in transaction SXMB_MONI for PI services is not such a big issue. You can always turn on monitoring in SOAMANAGER to trace errors if need be.
- Choice of integration technique varies considerably by release level (for PI and Netweaver) so system landscape will be a significant factor. For example, we have some systems on Netweaver 7.0 and other on 7.1. As you need 7.1 for direction connection PI services we'd rather wait until all systems are at the higher level than have mixed usage in our landscape - it is already complex enough.
- We've not tried the AAE option in a Production scenarios yet but this is only really important for high volume interfaces, something that is not a concern at the moment. Obviously cumulative performance may be an issue in time so we plan to start looking at AAE soon.
Hope these comments may be useful.
